February 17, 2009

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Â? Thirteen people have been safely evacuated from a fire at a four-unit apartment building on the Indianapolis near-northside. Fire authorities estimate damages at $100,000 but have not determined the cause of the fire Monday night. One unit had heavy fire damage and the other three had water and smoke damage.

None of the 13 required hospitalization, although three of them were treated at the scene for minor burns on their hands.

Two other people who live in the building were not at home at the time of the fire.
